DYI Clay Mask (Deep Facial Cleanse)

How are you doing? Today I leave you with the recipe for an amazing face mask that will leave your skin feeling amazing!

The story behind this DIY project is pretty simple: The Body Shop raised their prices 😥 I know, I know, sad days… I always bought my face masks there (and everything ‘skincare’, basically) but they are quite pricey now. And I recalled my friend Marta from Majestic telling me once that she bought the clay (powdered) and did her facial cleansing mask herself, at home.

So yeah, I went to the supermarket and bought myself a nice bag of clay for €1 / $1,15 / £0,75 !!! It does not get better than that!

So I texted Marta and asked her for the recipe (and if she minded if I shared it with you guys). It is really simple, this is all you need:

A bowl of some sort

A chopstick (she told me that the metal from a spoon could change the face mask)

A tablespoon

Clay (powder)

Water (tap)

On the bowl, mix (with the chopstick) half a tablespoon of the clay powder and just a bit of water, until you get about this consistency.

Apply the mixture evenly on your face with your fingers…

…and wait for it to dry.

Once it is completely dry, remove it with a damped towel.

And there you have it!

After removing the face mask, I noticed that my skin was feeling so much softer! But it was also feeling incredibly dry so I applied a moisturising face mask right afterwards!

Hope you find this post helpful 🙂 Let me know if you try this at home!
